Pakistani actor Emmad Irfani has credited fellow actor and producer Fahad Mustafa for playing a pivotal role in shaping his career.

While conversing with an Indian outlet, the Jalan actor spoke candidly about his Kabhi Main Kabhi Tum co-star Fahad Mustafa’s role in his professional journey.

“Perhaps I’m going to reveal this for the very first time here, Mustafa aka Fahad Mustafa has a very important and instrumental role in the career of Adeel aka Emmad Irfani,” he said.

Emmad continued, “In retrospect, if I look 4 to 5 years back, Fahad Mustafa as a producer has a very very instrumental role in my career trajectory.”

He went on to say, “And now again, him giving me an opportunity to play Adeel alongside him, I think Fahad really believed in me even when he could have had a bit of [creative] differences with me.”

Expressing his admiration for the Jeeto Pakistan host, Emmad said, “I can’t say it with all assurance but I have a feeling that he believed in me. Even with this project he really did.”

The Cheekh star concluded, “So that camaraderie, team chemistry, love and respect we had for each other is the reason it was easy for an actor like me to translate it on screen.”

Notably, Emmad starred as Adeel alongside Fahad Mustafa as Mustafa, Hania Aamir, who starred as Sharjeena and Naeema Nutt played the role of Rubab in drama serial Kabhi Main Kanhi Tum.
